I'd hope that those organizations can develop their QBs to advance beyond option offenses. Otherwise, they all can count on not being relevant for very long. It can work in short spurts, but if they can't, both Russell Wilson and RGIII will suffer the same consequences in their 2nd years that Cam Newton did._________________

Seattle away again? That's just frustrating because that can basically be chalked up to a loss considering how well they play at home and that the team has finally found an identity. The Vikings match up extremely well to the Seahawks but Seattle gets a major advantage because it is in Seattle.

Outside of drawing both Baltimore and Seattle on the road, that road schedule is not horrible at all. Dallas shouldn't be too hard to contend with at Cowboys stadium and if the Giants are still in their "light switch" mode then we could catch them on a bad week. I don't like that we eat a home game for playing Pittsburgh in London but that will likely be a nationally televised game to compensate for that. However, Pittsburgh has an elite QB, some good but aging defenders and nothing else really.

Overall, I really like this schedule. The Vikings could easily have another successful playoff run if they address their needs this offseason._________________
